<!-- Section 1: General doc -->
<important>
	<para>
	<keycap>Note to Netscape 4 users:</keycap>
	When rendered as html, these documents use "stylesheets" to make them
	look nicer. However, Netscape 4 is rather old and does not support
	stylesheets as well as it should. If our doc looks too weird, disable
	stylesheet support ( Edit=Preferences=Advanced ) to see the default
	formatting.

	<title>Browsing the Newbiedoc Documentation</title>

	<para>
	When the newbiedoc package is installed, you can just type
<screen>
newbiedoc
</screen> at the prompt. This will start your favorite browser 
	and display this index page. A 'Newbiedoc' entry has also been
	added to the Debian/Help menu.
	</para>
	<para>To change to another browser, edit your 
	<filename>~/.bashrc</filename>	file and add:
<screen>
export BROWSER=konqueror
</screen> Of course, if you prefer netscape, just type netscape instead of
	konqueror. 
	</para>
	<para>If you don't know how to edit this file, type
<screen>
echo 'export BROWSER=konqueror' >> ~/.bashrc
</screen> at the prompt. It will simply append the line to the <filename>~/.bashrc</filename> file.
	</para>
	<para>
	After this, log out and log in again so that the 
	modifications are taken into account.
